Usually......: To diagnose a yeast infection the physician may obtain a medical history, perform a pelvic examination, & take a sample of vaginal secretions which can be examined microscopically at the office or may undergo further laboratory tests.

A 18-year-old female asked:
Does waxing give you a yeast infection?

Waxing Side Effects: The face has some of the most delicate skin on the body, so some of the most common side effects of facial waxing include rashes, redness, sore skin, bumpiness, stinging, and ingrown hairs. Those with darker skin tones have experienced temporary skin discoloration post-waxing. These effects are mostly temporary, meaning that even if you experience them, it should clear up relatively quickly.
